Update on money pit. This weekend I installed new carpet, kick panels, sill plates, and 15" Grant wood steering wheel, and a chrome air cleaner. Not a lot of progress, trying to keep spending in check right now. Next to put in new upholstery front and rear, then on to dash replacement/repair, along with new weather stripping all around. Want to get the interior pretty well done before I start on body, motor, and brakes.

I hate to say it, but this was the first time I REALLY looked under the car. Found a previous owner had repaired a rotten out floor pan on the drivers side. Not a great job, but it will do for now. Otherwise, underside looks pretty good. Also found a previous owner must have modified the shifter or had a different tranny as the tunnel has been cut out somewhat.
